The function do-auto-fill doesn't consider that in adaptive-fill-mode, the
first line's prefix might not match the fill-prefix for subsequent lines.
For example, markdown-mode configures adaptive-fill-mode so that when
filling list item paragraphs, there's a hanging indent:
* List item...
next line...
Currently, there's a bug where auto-fill-mode will break lines at the start
of a list item, even though the resulting line is just as long, e.g.:
* [link](http://a-really-long-url.example.com/..
<http://a-really-long-url.example.com/>.)
When you hit enter at the end of the line in markdown-mode with autofill on
and the fill-column set to less than the length of that line, it becomes:
*
[link](http://a-really-long-url.example.com/..
<http://a-really-long-url.example.com/>.)
That's incorrect behavior because the prefix added after breaking the line
is just as long as the line up to the point before the break.
The attached patch fixes this by ensuring that a line will be broken by
auto-fill only if the position is further along in the line than the length
of the fill prefix. It also ensures that the first-line fill prefix is
skipped when finding a point to break (that is, the line should not be
broken in the middle of the prefix), even if the first-line prefix differs
from the fill-prefix for subsequent lines.
*Detailed Reproduction Steps:*
Get markdown-mode from:
http://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/markdown-mode.el
$ emacs -Q -l markdown-mode.el
M-x markdown-mode RET
M-x auto-fill-mode RET
M-x set-fill-column RET 5 RET
Type the following into the buffer and hit RET:
* Item
Actual result:
*
Item
[cursor]
Expected result:
* Item
[cursor]
Peace,
-Sam

There was a typo in that previous patch. Should have been regexp-quote, not

With the patch I get

[cursor]
i.e, the cursor lands in column 0. Is it correct?

Yes, that's correct. Sorry for getting that wrong in my initial description
of the bug. That's the same as the indentation behavior with auto-fill-mode
disabled. A hanging indent is not assumed with only one line.

Ah okay. The patch looks fine (apart from the indentation being off, I
assume because you had tab-width = 4). Would you mind adding a commit
message? (See CONTRIBUTE for the format.)
If you're feeling up to it, a test would be nice too.
Since you're sending from a google.com address, I understand the

that right?

tab-width = 4 seems consistent with how the rest of the file is formatted.
I didn't want to change the spacing in lines not touched by my diff.
I added tests and a change description, and formatted the patch according
to the current instructions. I made the patch a bit more minimal. I pruned
the part that dealt with adaptive-fill-first-line-regexp didn't work as
well as expected, since that didn't work as well as expected (it didn't
deal with all the complexity possible with adaptive-fill-function). The
updated version at least handles cases where the fill-prefix isn't shorter
than the first-line prefix. That allowed me to simplify the code quite a
bit, since that makes the previous logic for skipping the exact fill-prefix
redundant, fill-move-to-break-point already handles the logic of trying to
skip at least one word after the start position passed to it. Please take
another look.
You're correct about copyright. I'm doing this for work, copyright is
covered by whatever agreements Google has made.

Subject: [PATCH] Do not split line before length of fill-prefix
Previous logic already avoided splitting the line immediately after
the exact fill prefix, but in adaptive-fill-mode, the fill-prefix may
not be the same as the prefix of the first line of a paragraph. That
resulted in auto-fill-mode breaking lines in such a way as to make the
subsequent line as long or longer (Bug#20774).

Hmm, somehow the code that landed in my buffer looked wrongly indented.
Something got messed up somewhere (possibly by the email system,
possibly during patch application, I've been experimenting with various
forms of automation for that), but since the indentation in your next
patch looks fine there's not really much point in worrying about it.

Your commit message is a bit too focused on the problems of what was
there previously rather than how your new code is correct. This
description in your email is better, but I'm still struggling a bit (I'm
realizing I was probably a bit too superficial previously, there are a
lot of interacting options which makes things tricky).
If I understand correctly, the previous code would take the fill-prefix
as non-breakable if the current line started with the fill-prefix. Your
new code takes the first N characters of the line as non-breakable
(where N is the length of fill-prefix, should this be based on
string-width instead?). Is that correct (for both adaptive-fill-mode
and otherwise)? If so, please add an explanation of why it's correct to
the commit message. If not, I hope we can elaborate the commit message
until even I can understand what's happening ;)
(Minor commit message format nitpick: the part explaining the changes to
the function should start with "* lisp/simple.el (do-auto-fill):".)

You're right about string-width, since I'm counting number of columns.
Fixed that. (Which required me to deal with the fact that fill-prefix can
be nil.)
Your understanding is correct. My fix avoids do-auto-fill breaking a line
only to create a subsequent line that's as long or longer.
The previous version avoided that in most cases by refusing to break a line
during (or immediately after) the fill-prefix. But that failed to avoid
that problem when:
* It's breaking the first line of a paragraph
* The prefix of that first line doesn't match the fill-prefix for the rest
of the paragraph
I've attached the fixed version of the patch with a hopefully-improved
commit message.

Subject: [PATCH] Do not split line before width of fill-prefix
When auto-filling a paragraph, don't split a line before the width of the
fill-prefix, creating a subsequent line that is as long or longer (Bug#20774).
* lisp/simple.el (do-auto-fill): Only consider break-points that are later in
the line than the width of the fill-prefix. This is a more general solution
than the previous logic, which only skipped over the exact fill-prefix. The
fill-prefix doesn't necessarily match the prefix of the first line of a
paragraph in adaptive-fill-mode.

Actually, it's now occuring to me that adding a position to a
string-width isn't quite correct either, since it doesn't take into
account wide characters on the current line. I guess it should actually
be something like
(save-excursion
(if line-prefix
(move-to-column (string-width line-prefix))
(beginning-of-line))
(point))

That is much better, thanks. (One more minor formatting nitpick, there
should be 2 spaces after the period.)

Ah right, (point) is in characters, which doesn't correspond directly to
columns at all. I think I can avoid the extra save-excursion and make it a
little cleaner as a result.

Heresy! :-P
But done. That does seem to be the most common style in the ChangeLog.
Please take another look. Hopefully this patch can be merged.

Looks good. I'll wait a couple of days before pushing in case someone
finds we missed something.

I think you'll find it's not just most common, it's official policy[1].
However, the Church of Emacs will forgive your impertinence, as long as
you don't bring up the subject of quotation marks ;) [2]
